Technology Fast

We have been discussing for some time taking a break from all of our screen time. We decided June would be a good month. It is nice enough the kids can play outside but not so terribly hot. The kids will be giving up the Xbox, the kindle and TV. Trevor and I will be giving up TV, social media & computer time.

In my head I think I will love this, no more begging at all hours to be able to play on the Xbox. In reality I will be having major withdrawals from all the time I sit in front of the computer.

There are a few exceptions to the fast:

1. We will still be checking email - once a day. I have responsibilities for my home schooling group that I can't just stop doing them for a month, so I will be working on ECIHEN once a day too.

2. Family movie night - we may limit it to a couple times this month rather than once a week.
